I have just been doing some study on the Roman Catholic Church's Babylonian . This is when the popes ruled from Avignon, France from 1309-1377. I have to admit some of these guys were pretty good. Others were well . . . less then good.
Pope Urban V choose the name Urban because all the prior Urbans were made catholic saints. Now that is not really a bad idea of a name. For the record Urban V is not a saint.
Overall he was not bad and tried to reform the cardinals. This was difficult as the cardinals ruled most of the church.
